The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Holly Melrose finished 63rd of 462 women in the Open division at Auckland 2026, in 1:22:31, faster than 86% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:55 quicker than the median and 61st of 462. Stronger after halfway: 1:36 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Auckland 2026 and Sydney 2025 were 4:10 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
